Applications

Where ARTIC cleans.

Anywhere your storage leaves a low gap above the floor: under pallet racking, under shelving, under storage pods, and across a whole site one run at a time.

ARTIC on a warehouse floor between runs of red pallet racking.
01

Under pallet racking

The gap beneath the bottom beam or pallet base collects dust, packaging and dropped stock. ARTIC drives the length of the run beneath it and sweeps the floor clean.

02

Under shelving

Shelving runs leave the same low gap above the floor, often over long distances. Where the bottom shelf sits 190 mm or more above the floor, ARTIC cleans beneath it.

03

Under storage pods

Storage pods are shelving units on legs, parked in lines until a robot carries one to a picking station. Where the pod base sits 190 mm or more above the floor, ARTIC drives along the line beneath it and sweeps. The zones and time windows it works in are agreed with you at the survey.

04

Whole-site cleaning

ARTIC works through an approved map of your storage, bay by bay, returning to its dock to charge and resuming where it stopped.

Clearance

Will it fit? 190 mm decides it.

Switch between pallet racking, shelving and storage pods, then set the clear height above your floor.

240 mm

ARTIC V2 needs at least 190 mm of clear height.

The site survey measures every bay, including beam deflection under load.

Site conditions

What your site needs.

We come on site, map the warehouse and its storage, and measure clearances, floors and gradients. You approve the cleaning map before the robot runs.

Operating conditions
Clear heightAt least 190 mm under the bottom beam, pallet base, bottom shelf or pod base. The body is 170 mm high, and the survey measures every bay, including beam deflection under load
FloorsSealed concrete or similar hard, level floors. Uneven or broken floor is surveyed first
GradientsUp to about 5%. Ramps and dock levellers are excluded zones
Steps and edgesRaised thresholds, cable protectors, floor tracks and loading-bay edges are set as boundaries unless they are flush
Floor-level storageBays with pallets or stock standing directly on the floor cannot be entered
People and forkliftsARTIC runs in agreed zones and time windows. The safety case for shared operation is developed with your health and safety team
EnvironmentAmbient warehouses. Chilled, frozen and washdown areas are outside the current specification

Site cleaning

One map, every run.

Racking, shelving and pod lines go on the same map. ARTIC cleans each run in turn and keeps count of the bays it has cleaned and the items it has marked for your team.

  • Zones, slow areas and no-go areas are set on the map
  • Coverage, runtime and fault reports are produced on site

Other cleaning jobs

Something else that never gets cleaned?

Under-rack and under-shelving cleaning is where we start. If your problem is somewhere else on the warehouse floor, tell us about it.

Get started

Start with a survey of your floor.

We map your warehouse, racking and shelving, measure clearances, floors and gradients, and you approve the cleaning map before anything runs.
